1 The electronic structure of sodium can also be shown in a diagram. Each dot represents an electron. Since the atomic number of oxygen is 8, it will have 8 protons in the nucleus. An atom of ...

Photo: Niels Bohr's research notes for his new atomic theory Rutherford's find came from a very strange experience. Everyone at that time imagined the atom as a "plum pudding." That is ...

IN a letter to NATURE of November 25 last Dr. Norman Campbell discusses the problem of the possible consistency of the assumptions about the motion and arrangement of electrons in the atom ...

Cadmium-based nanostructures are opening new possibilities in near-infrared (NIR) technology, from medical imaging to fiber ...

University of Queensland scientists have cracked a long-standing puzzle in nuclear physics, showing that nuclear polarization ...

They have demonstrated that nuclear polarisation does not impede the study of muonic atoms. It clears a major obstacle that ...

The chemical environment of specific surface and bulk sites in catalyst particles can now be explored one atom column at ... The electronic structure at the atomic scale of ultrathin gate oxides.

To continue his research, he demanded a source of higher energy and higher intensity “atomic projectiles ... Studying the structure of the atom on smaller scales and being able to produce ...

The two collaborations combined their complementary data on the proton's inner structure to improve calculations of a phenomenon in atomic physics: the hyperfine splitting of hydrogen. An atom of ...
